I don’t like the cluster of stuff on the back. It just looks too busy. I know the screen will be beautiful like all Samsung devices. The price is just a bit to high for a device that will take almost a year to be updated and will be laggy eventually.

Yeah, the price is definitely hard to swallow. I don't think it will get laggy though. My Note 5, over two years old, has not gotten laggy at all. I expect the N8 will be even better.

I jumped ship with the Note 7 and went to AT&T.... stuck with AT&T through all the recalls and I am happy I did, They don't start to throttle the phone until it reaches 24 gigs! and even then it's not that bad.

Happy to be getting the Note 8, preordered it this morning (8/24)
Nothing against VZW, their service just didn't cover where I live...

it is difficult to search amazon for cases and screen protectors, keep getting results for the Note 8 tablet with the phone mixed in. finally got smart and added 2017 to the search. Now I am gettng results for the s8 with the note 8 mixed in. just cannot win

I planned to wait until it was in the hands of real customers to read real world thoughts but just couldn't help myself. Broke down and went to Samsung site for note 7 people. It was difficult to use as if you clicked anything and tried to go back you had to start over. Tried to buy the unlocked version - sold out until at least October 1. Read the fine print $425 off once they received your replacement phone and if it didn't meet their scrutiny you got $25! No recourse, your phone gone. Sounded risky to me. Would still have to pay $505 + taxes, activation for your carrier ($30 on Verizon). Then got an offer for us Note 7 people - 50% off. $960-$480 = $480 + tax and after I said I thought the activation was a rip of as I already had paid it for my Note 7 I couldn't keep I was told they had a $30 off promo which would cancel that out. So I get it shipped Sept 14 for cheaper than Samsung and with the payments left on my phone bill at 0% like always. Deal done.
